Whitepaper for your information
We're answering your questions
Information has a monetary value. When we published our Europe-wide growing report last year, we found to our surprise that the contents were copied, sometime word for word, in many sector information publications. Because we see it as our task to provide competitive advantages exclusively to our customers, we have decided to introduce a registration system.
How are growing areas and agricultural prices developing by comparison with other countries? Are there problems in the growing season? What yields are expected? What are currently the biggest quality-related challenges? What are farmers’ profit margins looking like? Are the stores full or empty?
The more information purchasing managers have about the answers to these questions, the more surely they can guarantee their companies full production lines and shelves of safe, legal raw materials and products at the right price and of the required quality. The best decisions are founded on the best information. In the absence of reliable data, rumours flourish and the wrong decisions end up being taken.
We reserve the right to exclusively send our white paper to customers with a complete filled in formular.

Traditional Styrian
stamp press process
While modernity has brought progress in many areas, the traditional Styrian stamp press process is still the best way of making pumpkin seed oil. The main difference between this and other pressing methods is that we work with open roasting pans. At our plant, people check when the pumpkin seeds are perfectly roasted and so will yield the very best oil. This enables our experienced oil millers to produce the pumpkin seed oil that has won more prizes than any other – and which as a result of this type of pressing retains all the natural constituents. The untreated oil is not filtered; the particles that make it cloudy settle naturally when the oil is left to rest.
